Kelly sold a CT125, but first.. a history lesson.

There are few motorcycles in history as iconic as the Honda "Trail" series. For decades, the CT (from the legendary Trail 90 to the rugged CT110) was the undisputed king of the campsite, the ranch, and the backwoods trail. It was the bike that taught a generation how to explore, famously dubbed the "Hunter Cub" for its go-anywhere, do-anything spirit.

We were excited to see another one find a great new home this week, courtesy of our salesman, Kelly, here at Honda of Lafayette.

Bridging the Decades
Honda didn’t just release a new bike; they performed a masterclass in "heritage design." Bringing the CT back meant walking a tightrope between nostalgia and necessity. One wrong move, and you lose the soul of the original. Instead, they hit a perfect balance:

The Look: At a glance, the modern CT125 is unmistakably a descendant of the 1960s lineage. It retains the signature upswept exhaust, the high-mounted air intake, that robust rear rack, and the minimalist aesthetic that made the originals so approachable.

The Soul: Beneath that classic silhouette lies a thoroughly modern heart. Honda took the legendary, bulletproof reliability of the Super Cub and injected it with modern technology: fuel injection for effortless cold starts, dual-disc brakes with front-wheel ABS for safety, and an electric start that keeps you moving without the fuss.

Why it Works
What Honda accomplished with the modern CT125 is rare in the automotive world: they modernized the utility without sacrificing the charm.

They kept the semi-automatic transmission that makes riding intuitive and fun, but paired it with an engine that is efficient, clean, and capable of keeping up with modern traffic. It’s a bike that doesn't just "look" the part. It truly handles the double-duty of a reliable city commuter and a capable weekend explorer.

It is a machine that honors its past while being perfectly prepared for the future. We’re glad we could help get this one out on the road.

🏍️ SOLD & DELIVERED: The End of an Era 🏍️

When Honda announced they were discontinuing the legendary CBR1000RR to focus solely on the RR-R, we knew these machines would become instant grails. So when our customer came in looking for one after we had already sold our final unit, "out of stock" simply wasn't an answer we were willing to accept.

They had options closer to home, but they chose to trust us to get the job done right.

We went to work, tracked down one of the last remaining units from an out-of-town dealer network, and handled the logistics to bring this beast exactly where it belongs.

Huge shoutout to our incredible customer for choosing the team that goes the extra mile (literally). Enjoy the ride. You’re piloting a piece of sportbike history! 🛑🔥

NOW HIRING: PARTS ASSOCIATE

Behind the scenes at Honda of Lafayette, we’ve been quietly overhauling how we handle parts and service. Between our custom online portals and our upcoming online e-commerce shop, the way we serve our riders is changing and that means our parts department is changing, too.

Summer is our time to rebuild, and we are officially launching a total rework of our parts system. To do it right, we’re looking for a full-time Parts & E-Commerce Associate to join the team and help lead the transition.

This isn't your traditional, old-school parts counter job. It’s a hybrid role for someone who is just as comfortable navigating digital order queues as they are managing a physical warehouse.

What the day-to-day looks like:

Digital & Systems Workflow: You’ll be managing requests through our online parts/service portal, preparing for the launch of our online shop, and operating our core Lightspeed system daily.

Powersports Expertise & Support: You need to know the industry. You’ll be helping customers track down the exact right fitment for their rides, delivering sharp customer service whether it’s face-to-face, over the phone, or online.

Hands-on Logistics: The digital world relies on physical inventory. You’ll be searching the warehouse for parts, organizing incoming stock, and handling the heavy lifting including loading larger items like wheels, tires, and cargo racks.

If you have real familiarity with powersports, high attention to detail, and want to be part of building a modern, tech-forward dealership experience, we want to hear from you.

Skip the generic job boards. Apply directly through our custom application portal here:

This isn't a job posting. It's the start of a new era for our parts department — one that runs a physical counter, a custom digital portal, and a live e-commerce storefront simultaneously. If that sounds like your kind of chaos, keep reading.
